From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3; Linux) Description of problem: When logging to the GNOME2 desktop: Desktop -> Start Here -> Server Settings The following redhat-config apps exist: Domain Name Service HTTP Server NFS Server Services All of them EXCEPT for redhat-config-httpd uses pam_timestamp. This is inconsistent,unexpected and confusing behavior for the "newbie" Linux sysadmin who is most likely to be using these GUI configuration apps. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. less /etc/pam.d/redhat-config-httpd 2. Notice how pam_timestamp is NOT used 3. Compare to the other redhat-config apps Actual Results: n/a Expected Results: n/a Additional info: There are 22 /etc/pam.d/redhat-config-* files. It looks like ALL of them use pam_timestamp except for: redhat-config-printer redhat-config-printer-tui redhat-config-httpd
TUI apps must not use pam_timestamp, which takes redhat-config-printer-tui out of your list. Also, the command 'redhat-config-printer' may end up invoking the TUI app, and so it also intentionally doesn't use pam_timestamp. (The menus run 'redhat-config-printer-gui', which *does* use pam_timestamp.) So this bug report just concerns redhat-config-httpd.
OK, fixed in CVS. Somehow this didn't make it into the fixes i made recently to redhat-config-httpd. Next build will include the fix. Read ya, Phil
